Very pleased with our meals. The Rita’s original enchiladas were delicious and served with rice and beans. We got the appetizer of salsa and chips and the salsa was very good. Obed who was our waiter was great has got refills when needed and was friendly. In fact all employees were friendly, the manager stopped at the table to check on things and I observed the bus boys interacting with people and were very pleasant. Very good spot and has 10% discount for military.

Rita's on the Riverwalk was a wonderful experience overall. Steven, our server, was amazing and attentive. The doors were open and the fresh breeze from the Riverwalk was soothing and lent much to the ambience. People were laughing, eating and just having a great time. We were seated very quickly. My sister had a regular frozen margarita, which was so much better than the one she previously had at another Riverwalk restaurant, Margaritaville (horrible experience!!) The prices at Rita's on the Riverwalk are very reasonable for this area and the food!! Let me tell you about the food.. We started with Salsa and Chips. The chips are light and crunchy, not like some places that are too thick. The salsa was really good, definitely homemade. We ordered Queso which was creamy and oh so delish!! I had the Shrimp tacos, oh my goodness they were absolutely delicious and very filling. The shrimp were coated with a light breading and were cooked to perfection. My sister ordered the Street Tacos and she says they were some of the best she has tasted. My advice? Stay away from the commercialized places like Margaritaville and stick with places like Rita's on the Riverwalk if you want a fun atmosphere, awesome food, kickass margaritas and superb service, all for a reasonable price.

Anthony was our server. He was so kind and attentive. Excellent customer service. He even brought water for our dogs! I’m thankful the restaurant was open late- but not thankful for me and my kids to breathe in cigarette smoke on the patio. Subtracted from an overall excellent experience. Food was yummy. Queso was delicious. The tomatillos sauce was so good!
